Customer Reviews

Good photographs and write up
Brilliant, just had this book from the library, which I will now buy from Amazon. Good write up of all the area of the Island. Best book I have found so far. Interesting and descriptive, covers all areas from places to visit, local telephone numbers, recommended walks, where to find local birds and the red squirrel. First class

Essential and helpful
Very useful guide, covers the whole of the Isle of Wight. We found the child logo's particuarly helpful as we have a young family and these logo's advised whether the attration was suitable and how long their attention would be held!

A bit of all-wight
A vital resource for any visitor to the Isle of Wight - Britains hidden gem. 10/10
